Abstract

L'invention concerne un dispositif d'entrée associé à un utilisateur et un système informatique d'émetteur associé à un émetteur qui sont couplés à un système informatique d'échange associé à un échange de réseau. Le système informatique d'échange est conçu pour authentifier une identité d'un utilisateur d'une carte de transaction en tant que porteur de carte légitime. Plus spécifiquement, le système informatique d'échange est conçu pour recevoir une demande d'enregistrement provenant de l'utilisateur qui utilise le dispositif d'entrée, la demande d'enregistrement comprenant un numéro de compte ou un nom associé à la carte de transaction, pour générer un message d'authentification en réponse à la demande d'enregistrement, pour transmettre le message d'authentification à un émetteur de la carte de transaction, l'émetteur fournissant le message d'authentification à l'utilisateur, et pour recevoir le message d'authentification provenant de l'utilisateur entrant le message d'authentification dans le dispositif d'entrée afin d'authentifier l'identité de l'utilisateur en tant que porteur de carte légitime.
